Fact Check
The core claim is strongly supported by Reuters' article 'Fed nominee Warsh's holdings include SpaceX, Polymarket, crypto and AI | Reuters,' which states that Kevin Warsh's newly filed disclosure shows assets well over $100 million and specifically describes two $50-million-plus Juggernaut Fund LP holdings tied to Duquesne Family Office activity, along with a smaller DCM Investments 10 LLC stake containing SpaceX, Polymarket and other startup exposures. PANews' article '特朗普潜在美联储主席人选Warsh披露持有加密与Polymarket等资产 | PANews' independently relays the same Reuters details and links back to the Reuters report. I was unable in this run to fetch the X posts or locate the original disclosure filing itself, so the assessment rests primarily on Reuters rather than direct government documentation. Still, Reuters is highly authoritative here and directly matches the user's statement.

Summary

Kevin Warsh, a nominee for U.S. Federal Reserve chair, disclosed crypto-related and private technology investments in a 69-page ethics filing submitted to the U.S. Office of Government Ethics ahead of a Senate confirmation hearing scheduled for April 21. Existing coverage of the filing says Warsh and his wife reported at least $192 million in assets, including indirect exposure to Solana, dYdX, Optimism, Polymarket, SpaceX, and stakes tied to more than 20 blockchain companies. The disclosures characterize the crypto-linked positions as venture-style, indirect holdings rather than direct ownership of tradable digital assets.
